Chapter 744: Playing with beads to relieve depression
When Gong Mengbi was refining the Five Ghosts Technique for the second time, he had already reshaped the foundation of the Five Ghost Gods.
If they were to cultivate on their own, they would probably only be able to do errands from beginning to end. Once they left Wuning County, it would be difficult for them to be of any use.
At that time, Gong Mengbi had just received guidance from the goddess and was well versed in the secrets of immortals and gods. He also earned a lot of incense from Shangfang Mountain and re-refined the Five Ghosts.
Now, the power of the Five Ghosts depends on Gong Mengbi's ability. Gong Mengbi cannot cultivate their own Taoism for them, but they can use their magical powers through Gong Mengbi.
So it is true that my Taoism has improved, but what Mr. Qing said is false.
Gong Mengbi only immersed himself in reorganizing what he had learned in the past and gradually perfected it, which gave him the illusion that his cultivation had improved.
A fourth-grade Taoist can also be called a terrestrial immortal, also known as an all-knowing immortal. With his ability, Mr. Qing can indeed peek into a place.
But it was still far from the so-called immortal realm where one could call his name and be known even from thousands of miles away. Not to mention that Kang Wen and Sun Wenyuan had not yet called him by his name.
There is a huge gap between the middle three grades and the upper three grades.
For an immortal on land to become an immortal in the heavenly abode, it's not enough to just be able to ride on clouds and mist. This involves the mysterious transformations of yin and yang. If one can't comprehend the underlying principles and achieve the transformations of pure yang, it's difficult to achieve anything in this realm.
Coincidentally, Gong Mengbi is now a rare master in the Pure Yin theory and Taiyin law, but he has made achievements in the Pure Yang changes, and can only say a few words about the true meaning of Canglong.
Even though he had obtained the Sun Pearl, it was only placed in the small golden furnace as charcoal, and had not yet produced any decisive impact on his practice.
Cultivation is a process that accumulates over time and cannot be rushed.
In addition to sorting out what he has learned, Gong Mengbi is now analyzing the thunder bead formed by the condensation of the eight winds.
This lightning bead was the product of a massive blockage of Qi, and its eruption had the power to cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split. While it was powerful for self-defense, it would never be as cost-effective as improving one's own cultivation.
Gong Mengbi is trying to resolve this depression.
This is an extremely difficult task. If these knots could be easily untied, the gods in heaven would not have cut them off so easily.
The reason why Gong Mengbi had such an idea was not because he claimed to be superior to that True Lord, but because the True Lord at that time was facing a large piece of exhaled air, the breath between heaven and earth was flowing, not just this one piece of stagnation.
Gong Mengbi only needs to focus on this one thing, and he has plenty of time to try and figure it out. Once he figures it out, it will be a huge benefit to him.
While playing with the thunder beads, Huangfu Yuliu conveyed Huangfu Chanyuan's reply to Gong Mengbi.
Huangfu Yuliu said, "A while ago, the master asked me to pass a message to the young master. At that time, the young master was in seclusion to receive the inheritance from his grandmother. He just came out of seclusion and replied to the master."
Gong Mengbi's Yin Spirit was divided into two parts, one on Fox Hill and the other on Lanyin Mountain. They practiced separately on weekdays. It was only taken back when he went beyond the Nine Skies last time, and then he put it back again.
"The young master said that she will be busy these few days. Having inherited the legacy from her great-grandmother, she will also gather all the branches of the Huangfu clan for a grand ceremony. She will come to visit in person after the ceremony."
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "Congratulations to Young Master Chanyuan on my behalf."
Huangfu Yuliu's face was filled with uncontrollable joy. Huangfu Chanyuan had successfully taken over the inheritance of her great-grandmother, and everything was officially settled. As cousins who had invested in Huangfu Chanyuan early on, they naturally rose in status and were no longer the same as before.
So when Gong Mengbi had been working on ten more Sky Thunder Pearls, Huangfu Chanyuan came to Lanyin Mountain in person.
Gong Mengbi closed his eyes and rested in the monk's house. The smoke in the Dragon-Suppressing Cauldron changed like a flying dragon.
The last time he brought the small golden furnace back to Fox Hill, he didn't have something to burn incense, so he always felt that something was missing and felt empty. So he took out the Dragon-Suppressing Cauldron and used it to burn incense, which was considered to be the best use of it.
When Huangfu Chanyuan landed on Lanyin Mountain, it was like a flame falling into the old forest, revealing light, and Gong Mengbi felt it in his heart.
"Xiao Qian, we have guests coming. Please ask Yuliu and Jiaona to finish their lessons early."
Xiaoqian was waiting outside the door. Upon hearing this, she bowed slightly and went towards the monks' hall.
Gong Mengbi walked slowly and soon arrived at the Taishan Niangniang Temple. Sure enough, he saw the petite Huangfu Chanyuan, who was wearing a crimson chest-length skirt, burning incense in the Niangniang Temple.
Gong Mengbi stood for a while, waiting for her to finish offering incense, then turned back and said with a smile: "It's been a few years since we last met, and Young Master Chanyuan has impressed me."
But the one who was truly surprised was Huangfu Chanyuan. She looked at Gong Mengbi and sighed, "I am a descendant of Grandma Meng's influence, and I have barely managed to reach the fourth rank. But you, on the other hand, I just can't see through you no matter what."
Gong Mengbi is now the incarnation of the Canglong, which can hide and appear. Huangfu Chanyuan has the same level of Taoism as him, so naturally she cannot see through him.
"I've been through so many things, and it wasn't achieved overnight. I heard from Yuliu that you've become the young master and held a grand ceremony. I wonder when you can be called the head of the family?"
"How can it be that fast? The current master is young and strong. I'll get familiar with the family business first. I've been exhausted these days. I'd better take a rest first."
The two of them left the Niangniang Temple together and walked in Lanyin Mountain.
"Mr. Mingfu, the Sky Fox Courtyard has been much busier in recent years than before."
"It's better to be lively. Otherwise, it's like a stagnant pool with no vitality."
"You're so brave."
Gong Mengbi smiled but said nothing.
Huangfu Chanyuan said, "Although I haven't been at the Heavenly Fox Academy for a few years, I've heard many anecdotes. Since the number of wild foxes has continued to increase, some doctors from aristocratic families have often suppressed them, and some have simply refused to let them in. This has led to quite a few jokes."
"For this, I have to thank you. The Su and Chun families treated students born from wild foxes harshly, but the Hu and Huangfu families were willing to accept wild foxes."
Huangfu Chanyuan said, "The Su and Chun families have ancient heritages. Not to mention Yehu, they don't even look down on us and the Hu family."
"I do know that. Originally, there were no Huangfu or Hu clans. It was the Goddess who founded the Heavenly Fox Academy and enlightened several fox spirits. These fox spirits took the surname Hu and established the Hu clan. The Huangfu clan were foxes who originally inherited the Taoist magic in the Emperor's father's mausoleum. After the Goddess built the Heavenly Fox Academy, they took the initiative to join her."
"You're quite ambitious, Gong Mingfu. You've figured out everything about our four families."
"We wild foxes are all living between the fingers of the four great families. If we don't understand clearly, and if we violate the taboos, won't we bring disaster upon ourselves?"
Huangfu Chanyuan raised her hands in surrender and said, "I'm here to help you, why are you making fun of me?"
